AI has transformed how we write (chat), communicate (voice), and build software (code). The next frontier is even bigger: transforming how businesses actually operate (enterprise wide automation). That's what we're building at Sola.
Sola is an AI-native platform reinventing enterprise process automation and disrupting legacy RPA tools. Our AI agents can execute complex workflows across any application, browser, desktop, or legacy system—free from the limitations and fragility of traditional automation tools. Users simply record their screen, and Sola creates a custom agent to run that process at scale.
The opportunity at hand is enormous. Nearly every enterprise, across every industry, runs on processes that are still painfully manual. We're building the technology to change that. And we're just getting started.
We're hiring a small group of Founding Solutions Engineers to help bring Sola to the world's largest enterprises and build the foundation of our go-to-market organization.
This isn't a role where you inherit a playbook. It's an opportunity to help write one.
Enterprise automation is one of the biggest opportunities in AI. Legacy RPA platforms have been constrained by rigid rules, complex implementations, and brittle workflows. Sola is changing that with AI agents that can reason, adapt, and execute work across enterprise systems: the next generation of a massive software category.
We've grown the business 10x in 2026, deployed across 20+ enterprise customers—including Fortune 500 companies—and demonstrated rapid expansion, with customers growing 2–5x in their first year. We've closed seven-figure enterprise deals, all with a lean, primarily founder-led sales motion. The product is proven. The market is responding. Now we're building the team to scale it.
You'll report directly to our CRO, Alex Latraverse, who spent seven years at Flock Safety helping scale the business from $5M to $500M+ ARR and growing the AE organization from two sellers to more than 200.
You'll work closely with Alex and Sola's founders to shape our sales strategy, playbook, culture, and team. This is an opportunity to learn from experienced operators while having a direct voice in how the company grows.
Backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Conviction, and Y Combinator, Sola has raised more than $20M to build the future of enterprise automation.
We're still early enough that individual contributions can meaningfully influence the company's trajectory. You'll own a largely greenfield opportunity, participate in the equity upside, and shape the organization you could one day help lead.
As a Founding SE, you'll own the full enterprise sales cycle while helping define how Sola goes to market.
Win new enterprise customers. Support AEs in closing complex six and seven-figure opportunities.
Land and expand. Help establish new customer relationships, prove value quickly, and grow accounts across business units.
Sell transformative technology. Help enterprise leaders reimagine how their organizations operate with AI.
Build the playbook. Partner directly with the CRO and founders to refine our positioning, sales process, and go-to-market strategy.
Help build the team. Shape the standards, culture, and practices that will define Sola's sales organization.
You'll have the autonomy to operate like an owner, direct access to leadership, and the opportunity to make an outsized impact from day one.
We're looking for exceptional enterprise SEs who combine a track record of winning with the ambition to build something from the ground up.
You'll likely be a strong fit if you have:
Approximately 5+ years of Solutions Engineering experience in enterprise SaaS or technology sales, or an equivalent track record of success.
A proven ability to work with Account Executives to win net-new enterprise business.
Experience navigating complex sales cycles and winning the technical decision for six-seven figure deals.
A history of exceeding targets and performing at the top of your team.
An entrepreneurial mindset and excitement for the pace, ownership, and ambiguity of an early-stage company.
Experience selling AI, automation, data, security, or software into finance, operations, IT, legal, or risk teams is a plus.
We care more about what you've accomplished and what you're capable of building than where you've worked or how your résumé looks.
We believe exceptional performance deserves exceptional rewards.
Base salary: $157,500-210,000 annually
On-target earnings: $225,000-300,000 annually (70% base / 30% variable)
Uncapped commissions unlimited earning potential
Equity participation as a founding member of our GTM team
On-target earnings reflect base salary plus target variable compensation at 100% quota attainment and are not guaranteed. Actual compensation depends on job-related qualifications and experience. Commissions and bonuses are subject to applicable compensation plans.
We offer comprehensive medical, dental, and vision benefits, 401(k) matching, daily meals together in the office, flexible PTO (4 weeks per year), and relocation support for candidates not already based in NYC or Atlanta.
The best career decisions come at moments of inflection—when a market is changing, a product is gaining momentum, and a small team has the opportunity to build something much bigger. Sola is now in one of these moments.
If you're an exceptional enterprise SE who wants to help define a category, build alongside experienced leaders, and participate meaningfully in the value you create, we'd love to meet you.
Come help us build the future of enterprise automation.
